Choosing the Right Grip: Size, Texture & Weather Considerations

Selecting the ideal grip isn't just about brand—it’s about finding a combination of size, texture and material that suits your hands and playing conditions. Different golfers have different needs, from juniors to seniors and from dry to humid climates. Understanding these factors will help you play more comfortably and consistently.

Grip size affects how your hands release through impact. Too small and your grip pressure may increase, leading to tension; too large and you might struggle to rotate the clubface. Texture and material options—rubber, corded, tacky or softer compounds—provide varying levels of traction and feel. Weather also influences grip choice: corded grips excel in wet or humid conditions, while softer grips provide comfort in cooler weather.
